Part of it is that he tweeted it instead of saying it all out loud in a theatrical “shout whisper.”

Johnny Carson once came back from a vacation with a (neatly trimmed) beard, and public response was overwhelmingly negative. And now he’s dead.

So when a film director drunkenly critiques peoples’ in-flight movie tastes it’s funny, but when I do it I’m hauled out of my seat by TSA and branded a security threat?

Barack Obama is an odd name for a show. Besides, isn’t there already some guy named that?

I don’t know, I’ve heard rumors that the book is full of fanciful tales such as “Trump revealed an Israeli spy to the Russians, blowing a counter-terrorism investigation” or “Trump hosted an impromptu strategic session with the Prime Minister of Japan in the middle of a club’s dining room”.

Unfortunately for them, the book will be in stores tomorrow, and it’s probably going to sell a ton of copies to people who are now more curious about it than then they would’ve been if the Trump administration hadn’t immediately freaked out.

“But it can also result in a more diverse group of nominees”

Well, if the top russian spymaster can be personally escorted into the Oval Office with a Russian state-approved “camera man,” it’s not too much of a stretch to think an american journalist would be able to to just hang around.

It’s simple: when the federal government does things you like—such as maintain a larger military than the world’s next five largest combined, or deploy that military throughout the world at great expense, or crack down on small businesses you find morally objectionable, or force other people’s bodies to comply with…

“...a heavily made-up Trump failed to recognize a succession of old friends.”

This is a part of the cycle (albeit this is taken to the extreme).
An “outsider” runs for the GOP nomination. They promise to “Shake things up” and “Run this country like a business.”
Liberals think “This moron can’t possibly win. I’ll vote for this third party. Cuz even if GOP outsider wins they will be so…

He’s so dumb and so ignorant of his own flaws, he couldn’t run a 5-cent lemonade stand without forking it up.

Well, W ended his second term with a 24% approval rating (despite invading the wrong country and watching the entire financial sector melt down). That’s close enough to Trump’s 37%, and I’d guess that (despite the claims that Trump represents something new and W now being considered an apostate) it’s pretty much the…

Who would have guessed that Trump would be completely incapable of performing this job, or that his administration would quickly descend into chaos?

The call is from inside the White House.

Memo to Ellen: Eric’s the dumb one. Wait, shit, that doesn’t help at all.
